The Microsoft Corporation of The Island of Windowstopiaoplis is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Rory Gates with an even hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, ban on automobiles, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.515 billion Windowstopiaoplisians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Redmond. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Windowstopiaoplisian economy, worth 434 trillion Xps a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is 96,326 Xps, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 728,989 per year while the poor average 3,578, a ratio of 203 to 1.
What goes down must come up, debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace, 'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Windowstopiaoplisian Space Agency, and UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Island of Windowstopiaoplis's national animal is the Windows 8 fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
The Island of Windowstopiaoplis is ranked 214,415th in the world and 2nd in Yecyma for Most Stationary, with 33.238694005 days.
